Hi Joe,
Hey! I love Handel. Steve Hackett, the ex-lead guitarist from Genesis - one
of, if not THE most favourite rock guitar player of mine, is a big Handel and
Vivaldi fan. He brought these influences into early Genesis material and still
composes 'Classical' guitar works displaying much of these influences.
Because of Steve, i began listening to Handel but do not have a copy of
Messiah. I do have Anthems 7, 8 and 9 however, and love them dearly.
Of course, i feel Handel channelled his experience of SQ-SQ tension into his
music? The church was an ideal place for a composer to generate static
responses to Quality, and the wonderful music we can still enjoy today is a static
manifestation of pure Quality. When we listen to Handel, the patterns which
compose us at this time merge into coherence with those patterns Handel left
behind. Talk about immortality!
All the best, and thanks,
Mark
